They stayed up all night talking in Julia’s room. She told him about palaces, castles, diamonds, and all the gold she had seen. She told him about what happened after death. Afine listened without saying a word, dazzled by all these things he had never heard of before.
The film is based on recordings of patients with symptoms of derealization, schizophasia, and other mental disorders. The verbal haze of individual psychopathologies turns into a map charting the landscapes of collective consciousness.
